Story

I, like many, many others, have faced the 'Lockdown dilema' - do I cut my own hair or let it grow wild? I've decided that it's coming off! All of it. But, why would anyone sponsor me for doing something that many people all over the country are doing anyway. Well, because I'm going to let my 8 year old boys do for me! And I'm going to film it to hopefully give everyone a laugh. I thought about a live stream and then worried about what I'd do if the boys sliced my ear off... So it will all come off on the afternoon of Friday 12th and I will share the video that night on Linkedin, Twitter and Facebook and to anyone that wants it! 

I've decided to support a great local charity - York Mind. During the Coronavirus (Covid-19) outbreak, York Mind's mental health services are continuing to help people.York Mind's staff team are all now working remotely to support everyone who needs us at this moment in time.This is a time where mental health support is needed more than ever - and we know that you might want to offer help.

If the idea of letting two excited 8 year old boys loose on my hair makes you smile then please donate anything that you can. The more support that we can give this great charity, the more support it can give to those people that need it in these difficult times. 

Thanks.
